NM-02: This is a conservative seat in southern New Mexico, but it’s open, and Dems are hoping to make inroads here this year. EMILY’s List-backed attorney Xochitl Torres Small is absolutely crushing her primary opponent, Mad Hildebrandt, 82-18 with 11% reporting. On the GOP side, state Rep. Yvette Herrell, one of the most conservative legislators in the state, has a 47-29 lead over former state party chair Monty Newman.
